FAQs

What is the primary material of the Air Jordan 3 Retro "Black Court Purple"?

The primary material is soft leather for the upper, complemented by elephant print overlays and a rubber outsole.

When were these trainers released?

The Air Jordan 3 Retro "Black Court Purple" was released in November 2020.

How should I clean the elephant print sections?

Gently clean the elephant print with a soft brush and a mild soap solution or a specialized sneaker cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials.

Are these suitable for athletic performance?

These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort and support for daily activities, they are not intended for rigorous athletic performance.

What does the "Court Purple" refer to?

Court Purple refers to the specific shade of purple used for accents on the collar, eyelets, and midsole of the shoe.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

While the leather can be treated for some water resistance, it is best to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and staining.

What is the original retail price?

The original retail price for the Air Jordan 3 Retro "Black Court Purple" was $190 USD.

Troubleshooting

Scuff marks on leather or print

Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft cloth for light scuffs. For tougher marks on the elephant print or midsole, a sneaker eraser or a magic eraser (used gently) may be effective. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.

Laces becoming dirty

Remove laces and wash them separately by hand with mild soap and water, or place them in a mesh laundry bag and machine wash on a gentle cycle.

Discoloration of white midsole

Yellowing can occur over time. Use a midsole cleaning solution or a paste of baking soda and water, applied with a soft brush, to gently clean and restore the white color. Sunlight can sometimes help with yellowing, but use with caution.

Stiff leather feel

New leather can be stiff. Wear the shoes regularly for short periods to break them in. Applying a leather conditioner (ensure it's suitable for sneakers) can also help soften the material.

Cons

  • Premium materials may require careful maintenance to avoid scuffs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear footwear. Ensure you have selected the correct size before use.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For the elephant print and midsole, use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution with a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing with paper can help maintain their shape during drying.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage.
  4. Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and nubuck to provide an extra layer of protection.
